The stars that started their journey from the "Morning Star. The stars who started their journey with "Morning Star Return to TV
In March 1991, ORT (Channel One) launched the first in the history of Russian television musical talent competition - the Morning Star program.
The host of the show, Yuri Nikolaev, opened the country a lot of future celebrities, but in 2003 the broadcast was supplanted by the reality "Star Factory" ... We remembered the musicians who started on the stage of the "Morning Star".
"Lyceum"
Anastasia Makarevich, Elena Perova and Izolda Ishkhanishvili shot in 1995 with the song "Autumn". Four years earlier, the girls warmed up on the Morning Star stage with ABBA's song “One of Us”. Prokhor Chaliapin
In 1999, Prokhor took third place at the "Star" with the song "Unreal Dream". The future wife of the young artist was then 43 years old ... Ani Lorak
In March 1995, a certain Carolina already applied for the "Morning Star", so 17-year-old Carolina Kuek wrote her name backwards and sang the song in her native language under an unusual pseudonym. Valeria
In 1992 Valeria won the Morning Star. 22 years old was the maximum age to enter the competition. Yulia Nachalova
Nachalova won the Star in the same year as Valeria, only she was then 10 years old. Julia competed in a different age category. Sergey Lazarev
Vlad Topalov
In 2001, Lazarev again entered the stage of "Stars" - already in the company of Vlad Topalov. The guys sang a song from the musical "Notre Dame de Paris". Until the all-Russian duet hysteria Smash! just a little bit remained. Seryozha and Vlad had no idea how many times they would have to perform the famous “Belle” ... Pelageya
In 1996, 10-year-old Pelageya won the Morning Star competition and received a thousand dollars! Angelica Varum
In 1990, Varum made her debut as an independent vocalist with the song "Midnight Cowboy", and the following year, the singer's first album, "Good Bye, My Boy", was released. Of course it was a bomb. Each of us has watched a music show at least once " Star Factory". This show gave our stage a lot of young talents. Perhaps, had they not come to the casting, their fate would have been completely different, and modern hits would not have played from the speakers of our radio receivers.
However, few people remember that the "Star Factory" was preceded by a television contest " Morning star", Which was broadcast on the ORT channel (Channel One). But it was here that Sergey Lazarev, Ani Lorak, Valeria and other modern performers first performed. Let's remember how it was.
Sergey Lazarev
Young Seryozha came to the program with musical experience behind him. He was a member of the children's ensemble "Fidgets". In 1997 he won the Morning Star competition with his song “My way”.
Angelica Varum
Nobody knew about Angelica's talent until 1990, when she appeared on the show with the song "Midnight Cowboy". The following year, the whole country sang her songs from the album "Good Bye, My Boy".
Valeria
In 1992, the singer was far from a child when she appeared at this children's competition. At 24, she took first place with the song "Only once in my life there is a meeting."
Ani Lorak
17-year-old Karolina Kuek impressed the judges with her vocals in 1995. Another girl named Carolina was entered for the competition, so the singer got out of the situation by inventing the pseudonym Ani Lorak for herself.
"Lyceum"
Anastasia Makarevich, Elena Perova and Izolda Ishkhanishvili sang ABBA's song “One of Us” in 1991, and in 1995 they blew up the stage with the hit “Autumn”.
Yulia Nachalova
10-year-old Julia with the song "Bird-titmouse" in 1992 became the winner of the competition, like Valeria. Only she performed in a different age category.
Vlad Topalov
In 2001, the already famous Lazarev performed on stage with Topalov with the song "Belle" from the musical "Notre Dame de Paris". They soon formed the duo Smash !!
Pelageya
Pelageya took first place and became the owner of the honorary title "The best performer of a folk song in Russia in 1996" and a prize of 1,000 dollars.
Prokhor Chaliapin
Prokhor performed in 1999 with the song "Unreal Dream". Later he became a finalist of the "Star Factory - 6" project.
The permanent host of the TV show during all the years of its existence was Yuri Nikolaev. He has been on television since 1975. His last project was the show "Honest Word".
For young talents, the "Morning Star" became a ticket to the big stage. It was thanks to this project that the children got the opportunity to express themselves.
However, there were also critics of this program. So, pianist Nikolai Petrov spoke about the program as follows: “ “Morning Star”, in my opinion, is one of the disgusting programs on our television. Little children of seven years old are forced to banish themselves under Moiseev and Pugacheva. I feel sorry for these children and their parents».
The author of popular children's programs Sergey Suponev also spoke unflatteringly about the competition: “ The Morning Star is crawling with children like frogs, but it is not a children's program. This is a program for old ladies who, having neither taste nor modern understanding of music, are simply touched by children in tuxedos and ties, singing famous songs of pop stars».

Vyacheslav Yuryev loves historical themes and everything related to travel. If you need a brief information about some distant country, feel free to contact Slava. This editor will dig up little-known facts about the life of military leaders and classics of literature. At the same time, modern technologies are not alien to him, from fashionable gadgets to the exploration of space.
Today, in order to light up or tell the world about your talents, it is enough to start Instagram or collect views on Youtube. Well, 25 years ago, celebrities were discovered, or rather - lit by the "Morning Star"!
Let's remember those whose names today, perhaps, we did not even know, if not for this popular TV show?
Yes, yes, in 1995, a young talent named Karolina Kuek was already preparing for her performance, as the presenter Yuri Nikolaev urgently demanded to change his name, due to the fact that one Carolina had already been announced on the list of speakers. Then the future star just wrote her name backwards and “tore up” the audience. What he does not stop doing today ...
How did you not know that? But back in 1992, Valeria literally managed to "jump into the last carriage" to win the competition. And all because 22 years was the maximum age for participants ...
Despite the fact that the daddy-producer had been preparing the girl for the stage from the age of 2, it was the stage of the "Morning Star" that became that first launching pad, which gave the long-awaited success and victory at the age of 10!
All fans of Seryozha Lazarev know that he became popular even as one of the Fidgets, but you cannot hide his leadership qualities ... In 1997, Sergei performed solo at the Morning Star, unconditionally winning side of the screen. It seems that nothing has changed since that time ...
Well, one more "Fidget" became cramped in the team. Yes, Vlad Topalov decided to follow the success of his friend Sergei Lazarev, with whom he sang the song Belle from the musical Notre Dame de Paris on the stage of the Morning Star. Oh, to the all-Russian hysteria in the duet "Smash!" there were only a few days left ...
Well, it was only in 1999 that the whole world began to sing along to the shocking girls “I lost my mind”, and before that Julia and Lena sang and won as part of the same restless “Fidgets” in the most awaited Sunday musical program ...
Did you know that in 1996 Pelageya, who just turned 10, won the competition for the winners of the "Morning Star" and $ 1000?
In 1997, with the song "Juliet's Heart", Zara managed to become only a finalist of the "Morning Star" competition, but you must admit that this scene is a worthy breakthrough for the first performance!
Well, here's another discovery for you - from the age of 11, Alexei Chumakov began writing his own songs, with the first of which he won the "Morning Star"!
And you, too, are now humming - "Do not offend, do not offend the groom, little girl"? It seems that "Morning Star" could rest on its laurels just for this one discovery!
Yes, yes, and for Eugenia the Pleasing scene of the Morning Star was the first real feeling of success and victory!
It turns out that not only today the name of Prokhor Chaliapin is mentioned in connection with another scandal or sensation in the world of domestic show business. 20 years ago, Andrei Zakharenkov also liked to play pranks ... And then the third place with his own song "Unreal Dream" on the stage of the "Morning Star" seemed to him not enough - he decided that the rumor that he was a descendant of the famous opera singer Fyodor Chaliapin would consolidate it success is safer ...
Admit it, have you completely forgotten this name? But Elena might not have had a second place at the "Star Factory-2", if several years earlier she had not been brought to the "Morning Star" competition by the chairman of the jury of the television project. By the way, then she won ...
In 1995, "Autumn" in the vastness of our country sounded in a new way - with poems and music of the song of the same name, which became the hallmark of the Lyceum group. But four years earlier, these girls were just “warming up” on the “Morning Star” stage!
Well, strain your memory! You couldn't forget that in 1990 Angelica Varum made her debut on the stage of the "Morning Star" with the song "Midnight Cowboy"! And yes, we are also in shock ...
I got into "Fidgets" literally from the street. He was then about 10 years old. The mother of our girl, Yulia Komleva, worked in a store not far from Seryozha's house. And he was an independent guy, he went to the store from childhood. And then one day he came to a bakery, and at the same time got into a conversation with a woman at the counter. Yulia's mother mentioned that her daughter is engaged in the "Fidgets" ensemble.
By that time Seryozha had heard a lot about us, because we often appeared in the "Morning Star", and Lazarev adored this program and dreamed of getting there more than anything else. Yulina's mother introduced him to her daughter, and the two of them went to the children's art house.
Entering the building, Seryozha stopped at the first step of the stairs and said: “No, I won't go. I'm afraid". He stood there, caught his breath, resolutely went upstairs, reached the second floor: "No, after all, I'm not going, it's scary!" Julia with grief in half dragged him to the third floor.

Then he skidded in front of the door to my office. Then Julia began to act decisively, came to me and said: "Lena, here the boy came, without competition, without casting, but he really wants to show himself to you." In general, she pushed him into my room by force, closed the door and leaned on it from the outside so that the guy would not run away. Seryozha hesitated, blushed, but nevertheless pulled himself together and began to sing.
I understood everything at once, without any auditions. High treble of amazing purity. Very confident dance moves. In general, I told him to come in the morning and immediately begin to study. It was obvious from the start that it would be a mistake not to take such a guy.
But if I fell in love with him immediately, then in the team he took root far from the first days. Lazarev had to go through a kind of initiation, which was arranged by almost all newcomers. Our star Julia Malinovskaya, who even then hosted the "Morning Star" and was known throughout the country, could not pass by such a shy and sincere boy. I decided to play a trick on him. He comes up and says: “Seryozha, Lena asked me to tell you that by tomorrow you have to learn this kind of dance. And if it doesn't work out, she will immediately kick you out of Fidget! "
The poor guy got scared, he diligently rehearsed all night, the next morning he came up to me and said: "Elena Mikhailovna, take the job, I learned everything!" “What have you learned ?!” - I am surprised. "Like what? Dance! As you requested. They won't kick me out now. " I had to explain to him that our guys were joking like that. But after this incident, Seryozha quickly became the soul of the company, and more than Julia, such checks did not suit him.
Sergey Lazarev and Nastya Zadorozhnaya (center)
Once we went with him to a song competition in the city of Cremona, Italy. We had some free time between rehearsals and decided to wander around the city. Taking a walk, we went out to the square, over which the town hall towered. We climbed up to the bell tower - a stunning view opened up from there.
"How good!" - says Seryozha and from the fullness of feelings begins to sing. Naturally, I chose "Santa Lucia" for the performance - this song ideally suited the situation. Amazing acoustics of the bell tower has amplified Serezhin's angelic treble many times over. Literally for a second, he stopped - to catch his breath, and at that moment we heard a noise below. We leaned over the fence and see, far below us, in the square - a huge crowd. Everyone looks at us and applauds. I had to finish singing and bowing.
About Vlad Topalov
Little funny little man
Five-year-old Vladka, then still very tiny, was brought to us for an audition by his grandmother. I just put up a notice on the door of the Sokol Children's Creativity Center, and they just lived nearby.
Vladik was such a small, ridiculous, plump baby doll. He went out into the middle of the room, blushed and, with every word, blushing more and more, sang: "A Christmas tree was born in the forest ..." The baby was very much embarrassed. Julia Malinovskaya immediately drew attention to Vladik. She came up, took his hand and announced that "this will be my little man!"
However, he took his studies seriously. Once the six-year-old Vladka was giving an interview to some TV channel, and a journalist asked him: “You are doing vocals here, dancing - this is understandable. And why do you, boy, need a classic machine, please explain? " And he, shrugging his shoulders, said with an order: “I myself, frankly, I don’t know, but my mother says that if you work on a classic machine, you will be slim and beautiful”. From the lips of a six-year-old man, it sounded great.
Vladik grew up as an imperturbable and extremely calm guy. Once we went on tour to America, and for some reason one of the performances took place in a concert hall of some fire department. This very fire station had a very low ceiling. And now "Fidgets" is on stage, the girls are dancing, everything is very emotional and expressive. Suddenly, at some point, Zhenya Tremasova makes such a sweeping movement with her foot, and a shoe falls off her. It flies to the ceiling and ricochets down from it, right over Topalov's head. Not a single muscle on Vladyka's face trembled, he continues to dance as if nothing had happened. Zhenya also does not show it, continues the dance in one shoe.
The guys worked out the number to the end, and behind the scenes Zhenya runs up to Vlad and begins to apologize: “Forgive me, I accidentally. Did it hurt you? " And he completely calmly and calmly replies to her: “Eh, Zhenya, you think it’s some kind of shoe. A month ago, a vase fell on my head - it fell off the cabinet - and then I had nothing. Do you see how big and strong my head is? She is not even afraid of a vase, not like your shoe. "
About Nastya Zadorozhnaya
The most beautiful ugly duckling
The first time I saw Nastya was behind the scenes of the concert hall. We then performed at the Christmas tree in the city hall. It was a very responsible and important event, and I was covered in soap, running from dressing room to dressing room, settling various matters. The administrator comes up to me and says: "A girl wants to see you." "What other girl is there," I wave off as I run. Five minutes later, again: "The girl is calling you," I again ignore. For the fifth time I can't stand it, I say: "Let her come here!"
I look, there is an angel. With huge eyes. With long eyelashes. And in a timid voice he says: "Take me to Fidgets!" Her dad brought her to the Christmas tree, she saw our children, plucked up courage and made her way backstage to ask to join the team. The insolence of the city takes: they took Nastenka for a trial period, and then in the main team.
Lena Katina and Nastya Zadorozhnaya (left)
She had a hard time at first in our friendly and "benevolent" team. In "Fidgets" there was always a catastrophic shortage of boys, and they were worth their weight in gold not only by teachers, but also by girls. When all the girls suddenly and without a declaration of war suddenly fell in love with whom, the shortage of boys was felt especially acutely.
And at this very moment Nastya comes - a beauty and a clever girl. Nastya has always been a beauty, and even at a transitional age, Zadorozhnaya remained a very pretty girl. And immediately, of course, I fell in love with our brightest boy - Seryozha Lazarev.
In general, seeing this, our girls and went to all the trouble. We decided to liquidate the competitor. From the very first day, they began to inspire Zadorozhnaya that she was ugly. Jokes, jokes, sometimes even outright bullying - it got to the point that Nastya really believed that she was an ugly duckling. She roared, suffered, sad, but did not give up. Then she repeatedly admitted in an interview that she had gone through such a powerful life school in Fidgets - all subsequent tests seemed like childish babble.
Thanks to Fidgets, her acting career also began. We were often approached by directors and producers in search of performers of children's roles. Our kids are bright, talented, uninhibited. In addition, at the Fidget School we teach stage speech and stage movement. Our fidgets were filmed in different episodes of Yeralash.
While on holiday in Orlyonok, we were approached by producers from the Cinebridge TV company, who were filming the first teenage series Simple Truths on our television. The first cast of their young actors has already grown up and even graduated from high school according to the script. They were looking for new actors. Their choice immediately fell on Nastya.
A series of "Simple Truths" aired every day on RTR. Therefore, I had to shoot a lot. During the day Nastya went to school, then went to the music school, from there to Fidgets, and in the evenings, weekends and on holidays she also managed to act in films - since childhood she was a workaholic. This useful quality later helped her a lot in her future career.
About Yulia Volkova and Lena Katina
Slim leader and head on shoulders
Yulia Volkova ... I pronounce her name, and a picture pops up in my memory. "Fidgets" are still quite new, we are training on Sokol, in the center of creativity for children and youth. We carry out casting - we choose our own replenishment. A small hall, the stage rises, the guys walk along it. We are watching them closely. And then a girl appears on the stage - a blonde in a velvet dark blue dress, pretty - you can't take your eyes off. Everything is clean, fragile, transparent. She went out and sings “Oh, it’s not evening, then it’s not evening,” but a voice - like a bell. And he sings the notes very well. As it turned out later, she studied at a music school, and she was doing great there. In general, it was some kind of angel. We took it, of course, without any hesitation.
At first, Volkova did not stand out in any way, but after about a year we all went to Artek together. It was a common practice, we went there every summer, in the camp they organized a special "fidget" detachment, they had their own counselors, their own corps and their own schedule.
A week has passed, and all of a sudden, walkers - our “fidgets” - reached out to me. One by two came and said thoughtfully: "Len, it turns out, Julia Volkova, such a cool girl, we could not even think!", "Oh, Len, it's so great with Volkova!" And since then I have only heard from them “Volkova, Volkova, Volkova”, “Julia that, Julia that”. She became not just the soul of the company - the master of thoughts. She won the trust of our leaders - Lazarev and Malinovskaya. This couple used to work as our main clowns, and now the three of them with Volkova amused the whole squad until they drop.

And Volkova also had her own trick - she loved to treat everyone. Since she was a skinny girl herself, frail and at first rather painful, her parents collected a whole chest with them with a variety of tablets, ointments and pills. And Yulka generously fed all the suffering with them. "Do you have a headache? Drink on you, aspirin! Do you have a tummy? Here's an activated carbon for you. " It is clear that her mother did not give her any serious medicine with her to the camp, knowing full well that it was dangerous, but she still managed all the plasters and brilliant greens and earned the fame of Doctor Medunitsa.
Especially girls were drawn to Yulka: she also had the talent of a stylist and make-up artist and loved to do hairstyles, dress up, paint. That was such a rare combination of kindness and sparkling infectious fun. And also the unique ability to become one of our own and a leader in any team. Not a girl, but a treasure.
Julia Volkova and Lena Katina (left) and Sergey Lazarev (right)
Her future partner in the Tatu duet Lena Katina came to us at Fidgets later than Volkova. And her story is completely different. Pope Lenin is a professional composer and sound engineer. We met at the studio when we were recording one of the songs with Fidgets. After a while he called me and said: “Len, listen to my girl? She studies in some song group, sings Spanish songs with a guitar, it turns out interesting. "
A girl of 12 years old came. Bright, red-haired, these charming cannabis. Well, lovely, not a girl! The voice is amazing, the timbre is very pleasant. And she herself is calm, adult, quiet. I naturally took it.
Julia Malinovskaya and Nastya Zadorozhnaya (center) and Lena Katina (right)
It is not easy to enter a long-established team, but Lena managed not to come into conflict with anyone. The old-timers, of course, tried to reward the "new redhead" with a portion of ridicule and jokes. But Lena reacted to this extremely philosophically and calmly. This calmness and "adulthood" have always distinguished Katina. Even after the stormy takeoff of Tatu, Lena managed to keep her head on her shoulders. And remained completely unspoiled by success, money and fame.
About first love

"Morning Star"
Start
In 1991, on the First Channel of the then Soviet television, a new musical program "Morning Star" went on the air, which immediately won the hearts of all viewers.
The famous TV presenter, actor and showman Yuri Nikolaev became the author and host of the program. It is worth noting that Yuri could not then find a sponsor for the selection of a team, children, operators, renting premises ... The author of the program had to invest in the transfer his own money, taken from the bank on credit.
Competition rules
The program was carried out on a competitive basis, in which the participants showed their skills in a vocal or dance genre, depending on age (age groups from 3 to 15 and from 15 to 22 years old). A jury consisting of four people gave an assessment to each of the participants. The one who got the most points went to the next round. In addition, the program included a competition for leading and a competition for young performers of classical music, held jointly with the New Names Foundation.
I must say "Morning Star" paved the way to glory for many well-known pop performers, such as Ani Lorak, Yulia Nachalova, Sergei Lazarev, and many others. The program, which lasted for 12 years, was repeatedly awarded the highest awards, including international ones.
Latest issue
In 2002, she migrated from Channel One to TVC, where she existed until 2003. On November 16, 2003, the last release of the program took place.
The creator of the program that will forever be remembered by everyone recalls the past years with joy and is sad that his brainchild was closed.
In his opinion, today there are few programs for teenagers on domestic television, and he would very much like to revive the "Morning Star", but, unfortunately, this does not depend on him.
“When I was thinking about the program, I thought that if it existed for several years, it would be great,” recalls Yuri Aleksandrovich. - As a result, the program lasted 13 years. For the program, I think this is a very good indicator. Nevertheless, television goes further, new formats have appeared, new views of Channel One. Star Factory appeared, which was considered similar to Morning Star, and my program was closed. It's not that I'm offended, it's just my brainchild, and, probably, I had to go further, develop more. Although I have been introducing new ideas, nominations, decorations all the time. But, probably, it was necessary to change the shape itself in accordance with the time. I, of course, dream of resuming the "Morning Star", but I think that it would hardly have sounded on Channel One. Now there is a children's "Voice", a very good program. Perhaps she would have gone on a different channel. You see, now all channels have transformed my idea in one form or another, and now every channel has children's programs. Of course, what I came up with is the authoring program. Now, alas, copyright programs practically do not exist, and I don’t remember that since 90, someone has promoted their own brand. I succeeded and I am happy that I did it. "
"Love at first sight"
Start
Love at First Sight is a TV romantic game show. It was aired from January 12, 1991 to August 31, 1999 on the RTR channel. The very first episode of the program was filmed in London, in the studio, where the English version of "Love at first sight" was filmed. The hosts of the program were Alla Volkova and Boris Kryuk. And Hook's voice is now playing in the program “What? Where? When?".
In 2011, an attempt was made to resume the show with slightly changed rules on MTV, but the attempt was unsuccessful. The transmission in this form lasted less than six months.
Until now, there are analogs of the TV game, but "Love at First Sight" remained for our viewers one of the brightest and most unusual programs of the Soviet period. First of all, the audience loved her for her mystery and romance. There was no vulgarity in it, which is now in abundance on modern television screens.
Rules of the game
The action took place in two stages. On the first day, three girls and three guys met for the first time in the studio, where they answered the insidious questions of the hosts. At the end of the game, by simultaneously pressing the buttons, it was determined who sympathized with whom. If the opinions of the participants matched the opinion of the computer, the happy couple went to the restaurant to get to know each other better and prepare for the next stage.
The next day, the participants were asked to answer the questions of the moderators about how the partner (s) would behave in a given situation. The correct answer gave the right to one shot, which was realized at the end of the game. The shooting was carried out on sectors, behind which were located various prizes, including the main one - "Romantic Journey". When hitting "Broken Heart", the game stopped and the couple was deprived of everything "that was acquired by back-breaking labor."
Subsequently, the rules changed somewhat - the pair for the second stage began to be determined by voting by the audience in the studio, and the number of heart sectors decreased (but the “Broken Heart” sector disappeared). The main idea of the program - the creation of a happy married couple, a wedding gift for which would be a romantic trip, remained.
End of love
In this form, "Love" existed until the end of August 1999. After the closure of this show, Alla got married for the third time and disappeared from the screens. However, she did not stop her creative activity, becoming the editor of the production center "Game-TV".
But Boris Kryuk remained in full view of the public, broadcasting “What? Where? When?".
“You know, the story of why the program was closed is overgrown with legends. In fact, the last few years of its existence, the airs were aired less and less. The last shooting was in 1998, right before Black Tuesday, - shared Boris Kryuk. - So the economic situation has had an impact. It must be said that it was a rather expensive broadcast due to the scenery, computers, etc. Alla and I grew up a bit during the journey and wanted to move on. As a result, "Love at First Sight" ran for some time, but it was closed. Everything was by mutual agreement, no one had any complaints about this. After that, a lot of analogs appeared on the screens that could not repeat our success.
Now I have found myself so much in the program “What? Where? When? "Because I am not on the screen. I don't like it when people come up to me and want something from me. By my nature, I am not an actor, I do not need to be loved, looked at, etc. I prefer to stay in the shadows. "
"50x50"
About transfer
"50x50" is an infotainment music program for young people, which appeared on television in 1989. The symbol of the program was a branded zebra screensaver. The TV show was popularly nicknamed "Fifty-fifty". The title reflected the concept of the program: half of the music and half of the information, half of the guests were already famous pop stars and half were beginners.
The informational part told about the news in the world of show business, musical events.
Among other things, the program showed new video clips, interviewed stars, held contests and quizzes from Russian pop stars and sponsors.
First broadcast
The program first aired on the First CT Program in 1989. From 1989 to 1991, Sergey Minaev was the presenter. In 1990, Alexei Veselkin became its co-host; they held several issues together.
In 1991, Veselkin alone leads the program, a little later Ksenia Strizh becomes its co-host, and in 1993 the director of the program Nikolai Fomenko replaces her with Dina Rubanova. Veselkin conducted some issues alone. In 1992, the program aired on the 2x2 TV channel, but soon returned to the 1st channel "Ostankino". Several issues in 1992 were conducted by Nikolay Fomenko and Sergey Kalvarsky.
Closing
At the beginning of 1998 the program was closed, but on September 19, 1998 it was resumed on RTR under the name “50x50. I will be a star. " Sergei Minaev again became the presenter, Kirill Kalyan hosted some episodes instead. In the new version, the presenter conveyed the comment to the teenagers, each of whom dreamed of becoming a star.
Where, in the same way as in previous issues, various clips of popular stars were shown. On April 24, 1999, the last issue was released on RTR. Finally, the last issue appeared in 2000 on the TV-6 channel, after which the program was no longer aired.
The TV show "50x50" at that time was the most spectacular and large-scale musical project. The presenters were allowed to improvise on the air. The program shot its own video clips. The news component of the program consisted of interesting events in Soviet and later Russian show business.
"Two pianos"
About transfer
The musical television game "Two Grand Pianos" was broadcast on the RTR channel from 1998 to 2003.
In 2004, she migrated to the TVC channel, where she stayed until May 2005. It is worth noting that the program was awarded the National Prize "Ovation-1998" in the nomination "Best Musical Program of the Year".
Rules of the game
Let's remember what the rules of the game were. So, two teams of three people participate: two invited guests (usually famous actors or singers) and an accompanist. In turn, the teams choose one of the closed blue screens and have to guess the intended song, the line from which is encrypted on the TV screens. It is impossible to guess the song by the first word, therefore the participants are obliged to sing any song where the open word occurs, necessarily in the appropriate case. If the players open the red screen, the turn goes to the other team.
In the super game of the program, all six screens open at once, on which the words of the song are mixed up. Either the presenter can ask the finalist team to name a number from one to six, or invite the finalist to the stage in order to choose one of six balls, each of which contains the same numbers. The number on the ball or named by the finalist team will correspond to the number of screens that will open. If the participants of one of the teams guess the song, then the team of a certain piano becomes the winner of the program.
Leading
The hosts of the program were Sergei Minaev (1998-2001), then he was replaced by Valery Syutkin (2002-2003), and then he continued to broadcast in 2004 until the very closure in 2005.
"My family"
About the program
Everyone, of course, remembers the Russian family talk show with Valery Komissarov, which aired on ORT from July 25 to August 29, 1996, then there was a break until October 3, 1996, after which "My Family" returned to the air and aired on Thursdays , then on Saturdays until the end of 1997. In 1998, the program moved to RTR and aired there on Saturday evenings until 2003. And from 2004 to 2005, reruns were released on the TV3 channel.
rules
The program discussed various types of family problems. Both professional psychologists and actors, musicians and so on took part. Conversations usually took place in the studio, in an impromptu large kitchen.
Closing the program
Initially, they wanted to close the program in the spring of 2003, but then the information was refuted by the host himself. The final decision to close it was made in the summer of 2003, when Valery Komissarov joined the United Russia party and took up politics, as well as new television projects.
"Morning Post"
About transfer
The Morning Mail program was aired in 1974. It aired steadily on Sundays at 11am until the mid-90s.
The presenter was Yuri Nikolaev, but sometimes the program was hosted by Shirvindt, Derzhavin, Shifrin, Vedeneeva, Akopyan, Shustitsky. The program was very popular with the Soviet audience. Even in the Soviet army, there was an item "Viewing the programs" I Serve the Soviet Union "and" Morning Mail "in the weekend schedule.
rules
The concept of the broadcast is the fulfillment of requests from viewers. According to the script, bags of letters came to the program, where the audience asked to fulfill the musical request. Nikolaev read an interesting letter and included a musical number. In fact, bags of letters, of course, came, but no one complied with these requests. Nikolaev said in an interview that if all the requests were fulfilled, then in the program, except for Pugacheva, Kobzon, Antonov and Rotaru, there would be no one. A script with an interesting plot was simply written and played out by the host and the guests of the program, if they were invited.
The decline of popularity
In the mid-90s Nikolaev led a new project "Morning Star" and left "Morning Mail". The program immediately lost its ratings and moved to the ORT channel, where it was hosted by Kabaret-Duet Academy, Sergei Minaev, and the Ponomarenko brothers. Later Nikolaev returned to the program and tried to revive it, but to no avail. The transfer was safely forgotten.
"Me and my dog"
About show
Dog show "Me and my dog" - an entertaining program in which the owners and their dogs took part. They participated in competitions together, overcame obstacles together, answered questions and received prizes.
In 1995, the program first appeared on the NTV channel, and in 2002 moved to Channel One. Also in 2002, the program aired on Ren TV.
The main motto of "Dog Show" is: "If a dog cannot do something, the owner can do it for him, and vice versa."
rules
Any person raising a dog could take part in the show. Competitions were judged by a jury, which usually included theater and film artists, popular pop performers, poets, composers, writers, directors.
After the seizure of the NTV television company in April 2001, the program temporarily stopped broadcasting, and reruns of the best moments of the old issues were broadcast. In autumn 2001, the authors of the program decided to change the concept due to the move to a new studio. The courtyard for walking dogs was transformed into an elite dog club, and the image of the host, who became the owner of this club, also changed. But the entrance to the studio was still open to everyone, without exception. A brass band also appeared in the studio.
Closing the transfer
In September 2002, the program, together with the program "Travels of a Naturalist", moved to Channel One.
However, the studio style and graphic design remained the same. In 2004, the NTV channel wanted to lure the Dog Show back to itself, but this never happened. The program finally ceased to exist in August 2005.
Achievements

"Welcome to the jungle"
Description
The children's entertainment program "Call of the Jungle" was originally aired on Channel One weekly on Saturday mornings from 1993 to 1995 and on ORT every Wednesday from 1995 to 2002. The first host of the program was Sergey Suponev. After him, the program was also hosted by Pyotr Fedorov and Nikolai Gadomsky.
Rules of the game
As a rule, two teams took part in the game - "predators" and "herbivores". Each team consisted of 4 people.
The herbivores played in yellow jerseys with animal prints. So, the participants were elephant, panda, koala, monkey. The predators played in red jerseys: crocodile, lion, panther and leopard.
Two teams took part in competitions like "Merry Starts". When the “herbivores” won in a particular competition, they were thrown a fake “banana” as one point. When the "predators" won, they were thrown a fake "bone". At the end of the game, the team that had more bananas or bones in the basket by the end of the game won.
From 2006 to September 12, 2009, the episodes shown on ORT from 1995 to January 12, 2002 were aired in reruns on the former Telenanya channel. Since June 1, 2011, the 1993-1994 episodes have been repeated on the Nostalgia channel.
"Sex with Anfisa Chekhova"
About transfer
Who do people prefer to have sex with? Where do they do it? When? How? Anfisa Chekhova shared detailed, fresh, interesting information on how to get real satisfaction from an intimate life in her television erotic show "Sex with Anfisa Chekhova".
She introduced the audience to the practical and technical side of sexuality. Real intimate stories, the opinion of sexologists, the results of scientists' research. The show talked about all aspects of sexual relations, the desire for intimacy, the search for unusual experiences, intimacy for one night, passion, love, a thirst for adventure.
The erotic show "Sex with Anfisa Chekhova" has been aired in Russia since 2000. The author of the idea and constant presenter, Anfisa Chekhova, has been collecting materials for many years to acquaint viewers with her conclusions. Given the nature of the program, it was usually staged either at midnight or a little later. Specially invited male strippers helped Anfisa to reveal the innermost secrets of sexual life.
In her program, Anfisa told about the most interesting stories from people's personal lives. About how to become sexy and realize your innermost desires, how to return an extinct passion, conquer your beloved man and prevent him from going to the left.
Closing the show
Despite the popularity of the show, it was not destined to last long. During the economic crisis, filming of new episodes of the program was stopped. The project was frozen, and old releases of the program until 2012 were released in reruns.
"Window"
Start
The first edition of the program "Windows" was aired on the STS TV channel on May 20, 2002. And immediately he gathered a huge audience at the screens. After all, spying on neighbors through the keyhole is an interesting and beloved business. And in the program, passions were not childish: offended wives tore out the hair of her husband's mistresses, men fought over the slightest insults, both strippers and transvestites came to the program, and, of course, all this was accompanied by obscene language. The viewer has never seen such a show! On Channel One there were similar programs with similar washing of bones and digging in dirty laundry: "Big wash", "My family", but it seemed there were still some kind of frames. In "Windows" they were completely erased.
There was another factor why the audience loved the show so much. It was led by the charming Dmitry Nagiyev in a shirt unbuttoned on his chest and with long curly hair. He was not shy in expressions, at times he himself pushed the guests' foreheads, and his "everything, bye, bye" is still remembered by the audience.
Plot
The idea and style of the program are copied from The Jerry Springer Show, which has been on air since 1991.
Usually, the plot of the program developed according to the following scheme: Dmitry Nagiyev explained the background of the conflict, then its participants were invited to the studio one by one. The heroes dealt with each other verbally or with the use of force. In this case, by the way, there was a "security service" in the studio, which consisted of two strong men, whose purpose was to separate the fighting.
After the end of the discussion, the presenter announced a "gong" and invited the audience to speak about the problem, and each was given exactly ten seconds. So, in one program, three different stories were sorted out, unrelated to each other.
Latest issue
A few months after the start of the broadcast of the program, the newly appeared TVS channel wanted to lure the rating "Windows" to itself. But the author of the scandalous talk show Valery Komissarov changed his mind at the last moment and canceled the deal.
In 2002, the new general director of the STS channel, Alexander Rodnyansky, decided to close Windows. And from July 22, 2002, the program began to appear on the TNT channel. True, for the rest of the summer, until September 1, the old issues of "Windows" were played on STS.
In February 2005, the last block of programs was filmed, and in the same year the talk show was closed due to dying ratings. The fact is that by this moment the audience was finally convinced: all the heroes are dummy actors. At first, many more believed that these were real people who dared to come to the program to sort out their family affairs. But attentive viewers began to notice that in some episodes the heroes are repeated, but the stories they tell do not coincide.
“I’ll tell you a secret: during the existence of the program, there was not a single real hero in it,” Dmitry admitted several years after the show was closed. - Until now, no one has repeated the success of "Windows". Imagine when a channel with a share of 3.4% (this should be clear to professionals) gives a figure of 26%. It is as if an ant carried an elephant. It was something like this.
May God grant health to the creators of the program. During my time at Okny, I bought real estate in Moscow. So we still exist in a small apartment - me and a mother with a cat. "
Lolita without complexes
Start
The first release of the program was aired on Channel One on August 29, 2005. The theme is eternal: family problems, relationships between fathers and children, men and women, sex, love ... But there is one difference: the emotionality of Lolita. The singer talked to each guest as a close friend. She never condemned, but she could openly express the most impartial criticism, and then cry with the hero. Her motto: "Getting rid of complexes helps a person to change their attitude to life, and therefore change their lives."
Plot
Each program was devoted to a different topic. Lolita indicated a series of questions, which she tried to answer together with her guests, each of which told his story at a separate table in the center of the hall. The studio was also attended by professional psychologists, psychotherapists, who gave the heroes specific advice and helped to find a way out of the most desperate situations. And this, by the way, was a breakthrough in the format of a talk show. Lolita was one of the first to work in conjunction with professional commentators, for which in 2007 she was awarded the TEFI national television award in the Talk Show Host nomination.
Latest issue
The talk show was closed in 2007 at the initiative of Lolita herself. The singer admitted that this work exhausted her terribly.
“There is no secret here, I was just tired and left,” Lolita said. - I passed all the stories through myself, delved into the essence of each one, I was frantically tired and, as a result, lost my mind from overstrain. At that time, I physically gave up too much, because television is not my only job. And I was also not satisfied with the editing of the program. What took place on the set was livelier and richer than what went on the air. I'm talking about technical flaws. It happens that the operator misses, and the one who sits at the console in the editing room is too lazy to tell about it. I'm a perfectionist by nature, so when I see it, I swear. I got used to delve into everything to the very essence and do not understand how you can work carelessly. I'm uncomfortable. "
Return
After 8 years, the program has a chance to return to the screens. True, on a different channel and with a different name.
- For those who missed the program "Without complexes": since August 2014, my new show "Lolita" has been filming, - the singer said the good news. - We got the go-ahead after the pilot releases. The program will be broadcasted on the Friday! Channel.
"I myself"
Start
The first truly female talk show appeared on February 22, 1995, on the eve of the men's holiday of Defender of the Fatherland Day, as a protest against the fact that most films and programs of that time were focused on men: politics, sports, action films, etc. In the program “I Myself,” they only talked about women's problems under the leadership of Yulia Menshova, the daughter of director Vladimir Menshov and actress Vera Alentova. Julia did not want to follow in the footsteps of stellar parents, and this was her first attempt to do something on her own. Just a few months later, she has already become one of the most popular, most recognizable TV presenters on the Russian television screen.
Plot
Celebrities, experts in various fields and the most ordinary people gathered in the studio to talk openly, to argue about pressing problems: “I don’t love my child,” “My husband joined a sect,” and so on. At different times when the talk show went on the air, Yulia Menshova had co-hosts: playwright and prose writer Irina Khrisanfova, psychologist Olga Serdobova, writer Maria Arbatova.
Closing
The program "I Myself" existed until 2002, going first on the TV-6 channel, and later on NTV. Over the years of its existence, the program "I Myself" has repeatedly changed its style, aired on different channels, but all this time it remained one of the most popular, top-rated talk shows. In 1999, Yulia Menshova won the TEFI national television award in the Talk Show Host nomination. “Until the moment of working on the show“ I myself, ”dad was not too proud of my success. Basically, they sawed me together with my mother, - Yulia recalled. - And when I left from under their wing, theater and cinema and took up television, some kind of objectivity came. They began to react more calmly. And finally they began to be proud of me. After receiving TEFI, my dad even praised me for the first time. "
Return to TV
Almost 10 years later, Yulia Menshova returned to TV. On the First Channel, her author's program "Alone with Everyone" is now being released, where she talks with popular people for an hour. “This is a return to my home,” Yulia admitted. - Over the past 10 years, some changes have taken place on television, but they are more of a structural order. What we once opened like a bicycle is now working automatically. And this is very nice. As for the recording of the program itself, I have no feeling that there was any pause at all. I do not feel frantic excitement, I calculate my strength and know what I can and what not. Probably, when this is really your business, you adequately assess your strengths, not underestimating the possibilities and not exaggerating. "
"Lucky case"
Start
A family game show appeared on domestic television in 1989. This is not the know-how of our producers, but an analogue of the American show "Race to the Leader". Each edition was attended by two teams (families), consisting of four people. They answered the intellectual questions of the presenter, each other, and TV viewers. Based on the results of 5 rounds, the winner was determined. The team, which managed to win four games in a row, received unthinkable prizes at that time: TV, VCR and music center.
rules
The rules of the quiz have changed over time. Initially, on the table in front of the teams, there was a playing field with colored sectors representing the topics of the questions. After 1994, this field disappeared. True, a new round has appeared, where pop stars, actors, athletes asked questions to the participants. The rating for "Happy Accident" was crazy until 1999. After moving from ORT to TVC, the program lasted for a couple of months, and then completely closed.
Leading
From the very first edition, the quiz was conducted by Mikhail Marfin, who, one might say, along with Voroshilov, instilled in Russians a love of smart games. In addition to conducting "Happy Accident" Mikhail from 1992 to 2004 was the editor of the Major League of KVN, in 2007-2009 he was a permanent member of the jury of the TNT programs "Laughter without Rules" and "Slaughter League". Since 2013, he has hosted the show "You Can't Think of It Smarter" on the STV channel. Writes scripts for TV series and films.
"Women's View" by Oksana Pushkina "
Start
For the first time, a domestic TV viewer found out who Oksana Pushkina was in 1997. Upon returning home after a long stay in the United States, the journalist came to the VID company with a proposal to make an author's program about difficult female destinies. The creators of the VID liked the idea. A couple of months later, “Women's stories” by Oksana Pushkina appeared on the air. The audience instantly remembered Pushkina's manner of presentation: the revelations of the stars talking about their difficult life, overcoming adversity and a sympathetic voice-over. Oksana at the moment became one of the most popular presenters.
Moving to NTV
True, despite the success, two years later Pushkina moved to NTV due to financial disagreements with the channel. They say they didn't pay money. Oksana's new program became known as Oksana Pushkina's Women's View. But the “first button” did not lag behind either. Oerteshniki launched a twin project "Women's Stories" with Tatiana Pushkina ". Not only did the hosts of similar programs have the same surnames, but they were also very similar in appearance. As a result, the two channels had almost the same programs.
Closing
The last issue of "Women's View ..." aired in 2013. The program was canceled due to Pushkina's return to Channel One.
Talk show "Arina"
Start
The program aired on the NTV channel in 1998-1999. The presenter, as the name implies, is Arina Sharapova. The genre of this show is very similar to Yulia Menshova's project "Alone with Everyone", which is now broadcast on Channel One.
The essence of the project
Famous people came to Arina's studio and talked on various, sometimes very personal topics. For example, on one of the talk show broadcasts there was Lyudmila Gurchenko, who told about a terrible illness that she suffered in 1996. Sharapova's program was distinguished by very interesting, but tactful questions and, of course, the presenter's charm.
Closing
However, in October 1999, Arina leaves for TV-6, and in 2001 returns to the First, where to this day she leads "Good Morning". From 2007 to 2010, Sharapova was the co-host of Fashionable Sentence. In 2013, she conducted several episodes of the game "The Best Husband", in 2014 - the host of the "Island of Crimea" project. Since the same 2014, she is the president of the School of Arts and Media Technology.
"Brain-ring"
Start
Another intellectual show of domestic production from Vladimir Voroshilov. The creator of the program “What? Where? When?" conceived this project back in the early 80s. However, he managed to bring the idea to life only a decade later. The essence of the program is close to "ChGK", but instead of one team of experts, two teams of 6 people answer the same questions. The order of answers is determined by the button on the participants' table: who was the first to press - the first and answered. Accordingly, the intensity of passions intensified due to the competition.
Leading
The first few issues in the early 90s were conducted by Voroshilov himself. In 1991, Andrey Kozlov, one of the experts in the elite club, became the host of the project. Besides him, Alexander Druz, Boris Burda, Vladimir Belkin took part in the Brain Ring at different times.
What now?
The program also moved frequently from channel to channel. At first, it was shown on the first button, for some time it walked along the TVC. From February 6 to December 4, 2010 she aired on the STS TV channel. The presenters were Andrei Kozlov and actress Elizaveta Arzamasova (in the image of Galina Sergeevna Vasnetsova, a character in the TV series "Daddy's Daughters"). In 2013, several episodes were shown by the Zvezda channel (a special tournament among employees of the Ministry of Defense).
Also, their versions of the show were released in Ukraine, Belarus, Azerbaijan.
"Up to 16 and older"
Start
In 1983, on the First Program of the Central Television of the USSR, a program appeared covering the life of young people. Moreover, it spoke not only about the achievements and successes of young Soviet citizens, but also about their problems. Homelessness, hazing in the army, drugs and rock 'n' roll - the hosts and correspondents of "Under 16 ..." discussed the most burning topics. Even intimate questions were discussed under the heading "Tet-a-tête." Famous people were often invited to the program. So, in 1988, immediately after the sensational film "Needle", the idol of that time, Viktor Tsoi, appeared on the air.
Journalists and presenters
At the initial stage, the issue was a magazine, consisting of separate plots and reports. Later, the program became closer to the format of a talk show with the studio and guests discussing the burning topics of the younger generation. Among the hosts of the show were Sergei Suponev, who since 1986 worked in the Children's edition of the Central Television and prepared stories for the program "Up to 16 and Older" and Alexey Veselkin.
Closing
On blue screens "Under 16 and Older" lasted a long time, until 2001. Since then, the project has been on indefinite leave. Nobody has fully occupied this niche.
Domino Principle
Start
The program started on the NTV channel in 2001. Elena Ishcheeva and Elena Hanga were chosen as the hosts of the Domino Principle. Issues wore a daily frequency. The program caused an unprecedented excitement - more than 700 programs were aired during the three broadcasting seasons.
The essence of the program
The talk show was based on real heroes and real stories. In each episode, the presenters, together with the guests and program experts, discussed a specific situation or problem. The title "Domino Principle" was intended to reflect the essence of what is happening in the studio - the desire to study every circumstance, any factor that affects the chain of subsequent events. In a figurative sense, when one domino knuckle pushes another, the whole chain falls.
Closing
More and more often, Elena Ishcheeva and Elena Hanga had to resolve conflicts not only among the participants of the broadcasts, but also among themselves. As Ishcheeva later admitted, she and Hanga could not work together, but if this happened, the program could have existed for a very, very long time. By 2006, Domino Principle's ratings had dropped to such a low level that the program had to be taken off the air.
"Details"
Start
The program appeared on the STS TV network in 2002. Tina Kandelaki became the host of "Details". The episodes went live. The first version of the program, which aired from September to December 2002, was produced by the VID TV company. Then the program was revised and returned to the air only in 2003.
The essence of the program
Guests came to Tina Kandelaki's studio, with whom it would be interesting and informative to talk on various topics. From 2003 to 2007, the program "Details in the Morning" was aired, hosted by Sasha Markvo and Nastya Chukhrai, and the regular episode aired on weekdays at night. From this show went "Stories in Detail" and "Cinema in Detail". Since the fall of 2006, the program was broadcast live and became interactive - anyone could call the program studio and ask a question to the guest. At the same time, politicians were never invited to the program in accordance with the apolitical concept of CTC broadcasting.
Closing
In November 2006, Tina Kandelaki became the winner of the TEFI prize in the nomination "Talk Show Host" precisely because of this TV show. However, in the first half of 2007, the popular program disappeared from the air of STS due to the low ratings of the latest issues. The reason for the downgrade is that the format is not renewable. In addition, it was mentioned that over the four years of the program's existence, Kandelaki managed to talk with almost all possible guests.
In the summer of 2007, it was decided to revive the program in an updated format. Tina Kandelaki began to lead her along with Renata Litvinova and Kirill Serebrennikov. However, this format did not arouse much audience interest, and after the 2008 New Year holidays, the program was finally closed.
"Weak link"
Start
The Weak Link TV game on Russian television has become an analogue of the English The Weakest Link. In Russia, the program was launched on September 25, 2001. She immediately aroused an increased interest of the audience and even divided it into two camps: some considered the game to be excessively cruel, revealing the most indecent qualities in people, others, on the contrary, interesting and exciting.
Rules of the game
A team of seven (up to November 2001 - nine) previously unknown people is trying to earn a prize of up to 400,000 rubles by answering the questions of the presenter. A total of 6 rounds with 7 players, 7 rounds with 8 players, 8 rounds with 9 players, and the final. The time of each round is limited (the duration of the first round is 2.5 minutes, each subsequent round is 10 seconds less), the time for pondering the questions of the final is not limited.
A feature of the transfer is the removal of one of the players at the end of each game round, which is done by a vote of all players.
The first question of the first round is asked to the player whose name is the first alphabetically (in the subsequent ones - to the strongest player of the previous round according to statistics, or if the strongest link leaves the game, then the player with the first name alphabetically or the next strongest link according to statistics starts the round), then the players answer in turn. In each round, you can earn up to 50,000 rubles by building chains of correct answers. In the last round, any amount earned by the participants is doubled (that is, you can earn up to 100,000 rubles). The fastest way to earn the maximum amount is to build a chain of 8 correct answers, in which case the round ends early.
Tricks by Maria Kiseleva:
- Who is dragging the whole team down?
- Who got lost in the three pines?
- Who has a head just to eat?
- Who is the slogan "Slower, lower, weaker" suitable for?
- Whose intelligence is at the level of the plinth?
- Whom will the team remove like a bad tooth?
Closing
The game was aired on Channel One with the presenter Maria Kiseleva until July 2, 2005. Two years later, the license for the production of its own version of the game was acquired by Channel Five, from December 2, 2007 to December 28, 2008, Nikolai Fomenko played the game.
"Rush hour"
Start
The popular television program VID in the 90s in the genre of television interviews, copied from Larry King's show Larry King Live up to the host's braces, is one of the programs that "changed Russians' perception of television." It was aired live on Channel One Ostankino, and since April 3, 1995 - on ORT from Monday to Thursday at 19:00. The first issue was released on May 30, 1994. Until March 1, 1995, the program was hosted by Vlad Listyev.
The essence of the program
The host of the program, Vlad Listyev, invited a guest to the studio, with whom he conducted conversations on topical topics - in different years, Christina Orbakaite, Yuri Nikulin, Yan Arlazorov and others visited the studio.
Closing
After the murder of Vlad Listyev on the evening of March 1, 1995, many assumed that the program would be closed, but it continued to air. On the evening of March 2, 1995, a release of the program dedicated to Vlad Listyev was released, without a presenter. After the launch of ORT from April 3 to September 28, 1995, the program was alternately hosted by Sergey Shatunov and Dmitry Kiselev, from October 2, 1995 to August 29, 1996, the program was alternately conducted by Dmitry Kiselev and Andrey Razbash. Since September 2, 1996, the talk show was hosted by one Andrei Razbash. In February 1998, the program covered the Nagano Olympic Games.
"Finest hour"
Start
The children's TV show began to air on Mondays on the ORT channel on October 19, 1992. It was held in the format of an intellectual game. The first host of the program was the actor Alexei Yakubov, but soon he was replaced by Vladimir Bolshov. The first few months of 1993 were hosted by Igor Bushmelev and Elena Shmeleva (Igor and Lena), from April 1993 to December 8, 2001, Sergey Suponev, who became the program manager. Project by Vladislav Listyev.
Rules of the game
The game was played according to two fundamentally different systems of rules. To be precise, the rules differed even from game to game, in particular, participation in parenting tours in the points season (in some tours the host let go after the first) and awarding stars in the second.
Spectacle season
The game consisted of three rounds and a final. 6 teams took part in the game, each of which consisted of a participant - a student of about 8-10 grades and one of his parents, less often a teacher or friend. Parents answered all questions at the same time with the children, bringing them extra points. If the parent gave three incorrect answers, then he left the game. There was no sign “0” (there is no correct answer) in the season of points, there was no zero round. The difference between the first and the second influenced only the order of naming the words in the ending.
Star season
A star was given for the correct answer of both the participant and the parent in the first and third rounds; in the second, the parent has the longest word, the participant has the longest word, and they received a different number of stars from game to game. The difference in stars gave a handicap in the final: the one who cannot say a word or give a star loses.
If all participants were to receive a star on the same basis, then no one received. It became especially important in the late games, since the record was 9 stars (+1 for opening a red box), and with that amount no one reached the final: it was guaranteed that only 3 + 2 + 2 could be obtained, in the first round you need three the player made a mistake, and in the third - so that the opponents give the correct answer to the same question or make mistakes.
Zero round
A gift for the presenter - a craft or a performance. In the beginning, the presenter gave a star to those who cooked it. But after everyone began to prepare, the star was given only to the best. Once the presenter gave a star to the only participant who did not prepare anything.
First tour
In the first round, the participants were offered eight objects or concepts, indicated on the video board, and were asked questions, the answers to which were these objects. Answers were given by lifting up the plates with numbers - answer numbers (respectively, from 1 to 8).
Second round
At the beginning of the second round, 10 large cubes with letters on the edges poured out of the pipe (later - 9 with a star replacing any letter). Those letters that turned out to be on the upper faces (looking up) were taken for the task. From these letters it was necessary to form words, using as many of the dropped letters as possible. Also, the words were composed by the parents. For the longest word among parents, the participant received 50 points. For their words, all participants received 50 points for each letter. Later, a star was awarded for the longest word for the participant, and another for the parent. In some cases, they got three if they matched.
There was also a game with the audience according to the rules: the audience came out, the first to name each word, if it is the longest that was composed. Then there was one prize: which one - you have to guess (one by one they asked a question to which one could answer "yes" / "no"). And get a prize if the presenter answered "yes" to the exact, sometimes close name of the subject).
At least three players made it to the third round. First came those who composed the longest words. Then those who composed shorter words, but had the most points (stars). If the points were equal, everyone passed.
Prize competition
In the points season: the player who composed the longest word (if there are several, then the one who scored the most points in the 1st and 2nd rounds, in case of equality, an additional question was asked), had the right to choose a prize for himself. The prizes were hidden in five numbered boxes, it was necessary to point to the correct box. The player could leave a prize or open another one (up to three boxes). If two people had the same number of points (which was rare, they needed equality in the first round), then an additional question was asked.
In the Star Season: the player with the longest word (if more than one, then the one with the most stars) had the right to choose his prize. The prizes were hidden in seven boxes of different colors and sizes, it was necessary to point to the correct box. A star was taken to open each box. If you don't like the prize, you can leave it and open another one. In one of the boxes there was a star giving the right to open another box for free. The red box may contain the best prize, but it may be empty, after which you cannot open other boxes in any case (the rule was not introduced immediately). If two participants named a word of equal length and had an equal number of stars, then they could open one box, except for the red one. If there was a star, then opened the second for free, "Applause" - for a fee. Sometimes the participants opened the boxes, but there was nothing ...
Third round
In the third round, 4 (later 3) objects or concepts appeared on the scoreboard. Different subjects appeared for each question, in contrast to the first round. It was necessary either to indicate which of the objects or concepts was superfluous, or by raising two plates at once to show which of the objects needed to be interchanged so that they were located in a certain order. The score was similar to the first round.
In the later games, the parents did not answer the question, but received only the first one to raise the sign and with the correct answer. The rule changed the strategy: for the leader (who reached the final), there was a theoretical opportunity to be the first to raise the board, but it is necessary that both opponents answer correctly or both make mistakes, and that an equal number of stars have been scored earlier. The lagging behind had to be the first to raise the plate, otherwise they would not go to the final. There were strictly two players in the final.
The final
In the final, participants without parents (later with them) competed against each other, starting with the one with the lowest score. The winner was the one who made more short words out of one long one. For a word named alone, he received 20 points. For a word named with a parent, +10. If during the game the player gained 1000 points and won the final, then he won the super prize.
Closing
After the tragic death of the presenter Sergei Suponev on December 8, 2001, the program ceased to exist. The last episode aired on January 16, 2002. They did not find a replacement for the presenter, although they tried Sergey Belogolovtsev and Kirill Suponev as new presenters. In addition, many other ORT children's programs were closed, such as "Call of the Jungle", as well as the broadcast of animated series at 15: .30.
"Big washing"
Start
The show was launched in July 2001, then on the ORT channel. Host Andrei Malakhov recalls how his idea was born:
- I saw how popular talk shows and their hosts are in the United States: Larry King, Oprah Winfrey (Malakhov studied in America. - Approx. Site). And they have been leading them for ten to fifteen years. And so, having returned, in the corridors of Ostankino, I met TV presenter Larisa Krivtsova (who later became the producer of Big Streak. - Approx. Antenna), and she asked me if there were any fresh ideas. I also shared my American impressions. Moreover, talking about the talk show, I assumed that it was rather its format. But at the next meeting, she stunned me with the news that she had agreed with the channel's management about a new program (it was “Big wash”) and that I would be leading it.
This show gave an impetus to Andrey's stellar career.
Rules of the game
The slogan of the program: “One hour - this is the automatic mode of the washing machine. Now, instead of the usual soap operas, housewives, having started their laundry, will watch an hour-long talk show. " For an hour, Malakhov talked with the guests in the studio, discussing the scandalous details of his personal life, both stars and ordinary people. She went out on weekdays, first at four o'clock, then at five.
Closing
The program ceased to exist in 2004. But the very format of the scandalous talk show on Channel One has not disappeared. "Big wash" just changed its name. First at "Five evenings", and then at "Let them talk."
"Both on!"
Start
rules
The program was revolutionary enough for the then, still Soviet television. The graphic design is a black and white checker, and that was the point: it was chess, a taxi, and a certain element of clownery. It was a satirical program, they joked about both people and some events. One of the most striking numbers - "Food Funeral", a parody of the funeral of Soviet secretaries general. In addition to Ugolnikov, the team also included Nikolai Fomenko, a member of the Secret group, Valdis Pelsh (he directed the first few episodes), and actor Yevgeny Voskresensky. It is in "Oba-na!" Nonna Grishaeva and Maria Aronova began their careers at that time, still third-year students of the Shchukin school.
Closing
After Nikolai Fomenko and Yevgeny Voskresensky left the program, it was renamed “Oba-na! Show corner ". The last episode aired on December 24, 1995.
